Orange Light
If she hadn’t found that key in the chest
If I hadn’t come through the field in the mist
If she hadn’t knocked on my door at the 11th hour
I never would’ve learned how to love you
I never would’ve looked up and seen that airplane fall
I never would’ve stood in the orange light and let go of it all
If the creek hadn’t been so swift in the spring
If the darkness I’d felt wasn’t such a beautiful thing
If the sky hadn’t opened up and rained our heads
I never would’ve learned how to love you
I never would’ve read that book about traveling on
And I never would’ve found a reason to come back home
If he hadn’t cut his hand and bled
If I hadn’t heard through the walls what they said
If I hadn’t gotten to turn that ring in my palm
I never would’ve learned how to love you
I never would’ve cried out my guts for the aching world
And I never would’ve seen the whole heavens
In the heart of a girl
